I applaud the Mulberry residents who are protesting the burning of the Quran ["Mulberry Residents Fight Quran Burning," Aug. 16]. As a loving-and-caring individual, I do not approve of the destruction of any holy Scripture. As a Unitarian Universalist, I respect the worth and dignity of all religions.

What I don't approve of is the extremist individuals or groups that want to destroy human values. The goal of all religions should be for a world community with peace, liberty and justice for all.
